Chapter 2
vvvvvvvv
A figure glided along the hallways of the 8th floor where dim lights created interesting shapes around every corner and obstacle. With a document in one hand and keycard in the other, Heero finally reached his office door, and carefully slid the card through the security pass mechanism and entered his 5-digit code. Cool air rushed at his face as he entered his simplistic yet cozy office.
'I have to thank Hilde for fixing the AC on this floor, it's working better than ever.'
Placing the file on his mahogany desk, he sat on his leather chair and turned on the desk lamp, immediately illuminating the jumble of letters before him. He decided to go over it once more ( this probably being the thirteenth time) and had read about three pages when he finally realized that he was paying absolutely no attention to what he was reading. He couldn't even name one word he'd come across so far.
'So much for finishing this tonight.'
He closed the file and stared at the door located several feet away from his desk. Its metallic appearance was especially interesting for him today because it kept his mind off what he was thinking about when he was blankly 'reading' three pages of the security file a few minutes ago. His mind was debating whether he should accept Relena's request concerning his presence on her trip next week. He knew it would be a big bonus on her ensured safety and it would make her extremely happy. Even the others were urging him to come along, but he kindly refused their offers, saying he had a lot of work to catch up on. It was the truth, well half of it anyway. Deep inside he knew what it would mean if he were to go with them. There would be no work as an excuse to fight the feelings inside him. Nope, all he would have would be leisure time with his closest friends and the woman he deeply cared for. It would be hard for him, that was for sure and to be honest he was a little confused about everything he felt for her. He cared for her a lot, and he was over the whole 'I am not worthy of her' idea. He had worked hard for a normal and respectable life after the war, they all had and in three years they had finally received it. So what was stopping him from going to her? He couldn't really figure it out, he was new to the whole romance concept but he knew his time was running short...
His 'brainstorming' was pleasantly cut off when the door speaker began echoing out a familiar voice. If it weren't for his years of training to achieve the perfect poker face and stance he would have surely jumped 6 feet into the air.
"Hey buddy boy! Mind letting an old pal in for a little chat? I promise it won't take long, I know how much work you have to do. snicker"
Duo's voice filled the room from the little speaker, and Heero was certain he could sense a deep sarcasm in his tone when referring to his 'work'. He thought twice about opening the door, but he figured it would be better to let him in and out quickly than leave him outside and hear his whining for another half hour. He reached for the blue button on the corner of the desk and upon pressing it, the door slid open revealing a smiling faced man with a braid reaching well below his waist.
"That took you long enough!"
Duo leisurely walked in and sat on the chair facing Heero's desk. Duo's eyes drifted from Heero's face to the manila folder placed before him.
"Gosh Heero you going over that again? The whole security department went over that thing over 26 times already! Its not like we're going to an enemy base or something, it's a V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N, on a secluded mansion on Maui. Your fussing over this again, how dangerous can it possibly be?"
Heero's look automatically answered his question, and Duo decided to switch the topic before Heero threw him out...literally. But his next choice of discussion wasn't any better than the first one.
"So pal, are you coming or what? I'm telling you it's going to be a blast. One of Quatre's sisters happens to own this mansion and I heard it's got everything, billiard tables, pools, jacuzzis, a private beach, and its only 10 minutes away from the nearest luau place. Oh did I mention the bedrooms? They have their own bar and kitchen! I mean come on it can't get any better than that!"
Seeing that Heero's expression remained unaltered even after his raving about the luxury and fun they would have there, Duo let out a small sigh and leaned his head on his hand.
"No chance?"
"None."
"........did I mention the snorkelin-"
"DUO..."
Heero's tone had hints of warning and irritation, though he didn't let all of it show. It was enough he was half forcing himself to stay, and now Duo was trying to convince him to come by talking about all the pleasant things he knew he would have to miss. 'Life can't get any better can it' He thought to himself as he slowly began rubbing his temples.
"Look Duo, I have to go over this document at least one more time and then I have to continue working on the files that are due next week. As you can see I'm not too far ahead so if you don't mind, I have work to do and you have somewhere else to be."
"Alright, alright I'm going, just one more question."
Heero was somewhat pleased to see Duo complying to leave, so he figured he could tolerate one last question before the braided buffoon was finally out the door.
"Alright, shoot."
"What would it take to get you out of this office and into the airport next Monday?"
"About 2 gallons of anesthetic, a baseball bat, and 5 mobile dolls."
Duo seemed to be happy with Heero's surprisingly 'humorous' answer and so he left the office with an overly happy smile on his face. This made Heero the least bit nervous, knowing his crazy friend he wouldn't be surprised if Duo showed up on Monday with every item he listed. Brushing off his minor worry he sat back down in his chair and attempted to reread the document, with the slightest bit of success this time.
Little did he know that Duo now walked down the hallways with an extra skip in his step and an evil glint in his eyes.
"Sorry you had to pick the hard way buddy but its definitely on now..."

"Hello, this is Hilde how can I help you?"
"Hello Hilde? Hey its Relena."
"Hey Lena! How's it going? You sound a bit tired. I bet your itching to get on that one way flight to heaven eh?"
Relena couldn't help but giggle at her best friend's very close assumption.
"I think your getting to know me a little too well Hilde."
"Well, Heero Yuy eat your heart out!"
Hilde was please to hear Relena's sudden laughter. Though worn out it was still as melodious as ever.
"So tell me, has soldier boy miraculously decided to join us all, or is he going to stay and keep working on his endless amount of paperwork."
"Well thus far he's staying and I doubt anything we say or do is going to change his mind. He is Heero Yuy after all."
"Come on Relena, do you honestly think YOU of all people can't change his mind. You're a politician for goodness sake and he's practically in love with you! You should be able to bend him over in a snap."
"Hilde its not as easy as you think."
"Sure it is, just wear your shortest skirt and most revealing shirt then hea-"
"HILDE!"
"HAHA ok, ok I'm just kidding. Listen even if he doesn't come it'll be fun alright? He's a big boy I think he can take care of himself. Anyway, I have a strong feeling he'll be coming along."
"And why do you think that?"
"Because I saw Duo come home today with a big smile on his face and a SportMart magazine. Knowing Duo, he's definitely up to something."
Relena had a mental image of Duo and what he could possible be planning, and the thought only made her shudder.
"Well let's hope that Duo will make it out alive if his plan has anything to do with making Heero do something against his own will."
"Ya well he's managed to make it through all the other ones so he should make it through this one. Speaking of whom, he just stomped in with a growling tummy. Listen Rel, I gotta go make him dinner before he storms the fridge and finishes whatever's in there."
"Alright Hilde, OH! Before I forget, the reason I called was to ask if you got all the airplane tickets. I gave you enough for 10 right? Noin called and said Zechs and her will be arriving on the third day so they won't be needing tickets."
"Oh alright, ya I got them all. Actually I got 11 just incase Heero happens to come along. Like I said, knowing Duo, Heero will be coming."
"I hope so, Hilde. Well, I'll see you soon then."
"Bye Relena."
"Goodbye Hilde."

A.N. uh oh..What's Duo got up his sleeve? I think Heero will regret opening his mouth, or will he? I know this chapter was mostly dialogue, but once the story gets moving ill get into all the juicy stuff. Just so you know the pairings in this fic will be HxR (ofcourse), DxH, QxD, TxM, ZxN, WxS, CxOC. Can you feel the love? I sure can! MWAHAHAHA!!! Read and Review pleeeeeeez!
